That car was built with one thing in mind, winning the Riddler award. When he did not win, he totally lost interest in the car

I have seen this car up close at the world of wheels in Boston a few times and talked with the owner, It was a labor of love and am surprised this car is for sale, May be something bigger and better. It is truely a beautiful car and the the color comb. is perfect.

Charles is selling "Split Personality" to fund his next project, which won't be so Ridler-oriented.

That's Rich Lagasse's car. Great guy and a great car. He's done all the shows he can with that car and won many awards. He's ready for a different project. He has mixed emotions about selling. I will be there Saturday night to watch this one go through. Should be fun.

Oops - getting old sucks! I meant "Rich", not "Charles".

Don't beat yourself up too bad John. I can't remember you ever needing any kind of corrections.

I sure hope that 63 was a hopeless basket case before it was started.

Trust me! I was a basket case. I know the previous owner well! Didn;t you see the articles about the build in Corvette Fever. There is a photo of the body in primer at my shop before he bought it. It could have been restored but this was a much better destination for it. The outcome speaks for itself. You can definately see the hours of manual labor put into that car.
